Text and translation

English translation

4992. It was narrated from Anas that the Prophet ﷺ said: “There are three things, whoever attains them will find therein the sweetness of Islam: When Allāh and His Messenger are dearer to him than all else; when he loves a person and only loves him for the sake of Allāh; and when he would hate to go back to disbelief as much as he would hate to be thrown into the fire.” (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Arabic text

4989 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " ثَلَاثٌ مَنْ كُنَّ فِيهِ وَجَدَ بِهِنَّ حَلَاوَةَ الْإِسْلَامِ: مَنْ كَانَ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِ مِمَّا سِوَاهُمَا، وَمَنْ أَحَبَّ الْمَرْءَ لَا يُحِبُّهُ إِلَّا لِلَّهِ، وَمَنْ يَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ إِلَى الْكُفْرِ كَمَا يَكْرَهُ أَنْ يُلْقَى فِي النَّارِ "

Commentary

It has preceded that Islam and Imān are often used for the same meaning. This narration also corroborates it. In the previous narrations, Faith was used, in this Tradition the same attributes have been mentioned as being the cause of the sweetness of Islam.
